28 Days to Purdue Football: DeAngelo Yancey

During the 2013 season then freshman DeAngelo Yancey looked like a future leader of this football team. He was one of, if not the, best receiver on the field for Purdue. He showed great promise during that season and gave hope to a Purdue position that, like many others, had struggled to produce a real star of late. Then last season that all came tumbling down. This season Yancey has regained his focus and is looking to return to that freshman year form.

2015 Projection: Starter at wide receiver

As mentioned above after leading the team in 2013 with 546 yards receiving Yancey all but disappeared during the 2014 season.
